Excelsior Correspondent

SRINAGAR, July 22: Employees Joint Action Committee (EJAC), J&K, today urged the Government to release payment of treasury bills as Government employees are not able to withdraw their hard earned GP funds since last three months.
The employees often save this money for the marriage purpose of their children or other essential works. Even many of these employees use this money for construction purposes and even for educational activities of their children but due to shortage of money they are not able to perform such tasks and are forced to postpone marriage ceremonies and other important activities due to which these employees are facing a lot of trouble.
Meanwhile, the retired employees are not yet been given the additional leave salary arrears as hike of DA for retired government employees.
Shabnam urged the J&K Government especially, the Chief Secretary and Financial Commissioner, Finance to personally intervene into the matter and release payment against the treasury bills so that these suffering retired employees could have a sigh of relief.
